Being an award-winning Mandopop superstar certainly has its perks.
Singaporean singer-songwriter JJ Lin made fun of everyone else when he posted photos of himself with a new PlayStation 5, weeks before the official launch of the next-gen video game console.
“I’m excited to be the first in Asia to get their hands on the PlayStation 5,” he wrote in a Facebook post on Wednesday (October 28).
That unverified claim aside, the post featured the 39-year-old musician in various poses with Sony’s gigantic new gaming console, although we can’t really see what he’s playing on it.
You are likely to face the same embargo guidelines as we the media, who managed to get a hands-on demo with the PS5 earlier this week. So there are no photos of the back of the console, no game windows, and no user interface images.
However, unlike the rest of us, it seems like JJ is keeping the PS5 console at home before it’s available in stores, much to the envy of everyone else, especially those who couldn’t even pre-order it due to limited stocks.
JJ is certainly no stranger to getting his hands on the latest tech gadgets before everyone else: The Singaporean was seen charging an iPhone X weeks before the device hit stores in 2017.
As for us Singaporeans who are far from world pop stars, we will only be able to buy the PS5 when it launches here on November 19. In the meantime, stay tuned for our first hands-on impressions of the PS5 when the embargo is lifted tomorrow.
